On the 9th inst. ]. HI. Karnes' young
est boy met with quite serious acct
dent. He was playing driver on horse
power with some other boys, when his
feet got caught in the machinery of the
power and were badly mutilated. The
injury is likely to make him cripple.
The drought still continues and there
is difficulty in finding water for stock. II
there is no rain in August to moisten
the ground there will be no fall feed.
The corn in many places is showing the
white flag, and all late planted pieces

be harvested only for fodder.
The dime reading at Pleasant Prairie
ON the 9th inst. furnished very enjoy
able programme. The music was ex-
cellent, although some of the pieces Sc
lected were rather long. The "Siege of
Paris" was well executed by Mrs. Nettie
Gethen, but was rather prolonged for
such a varied entertainment. Henry
Fellows examination song, 81 Did anu
You Didn't" was we'll executed. It
was remarked by many that w. L.
threw a little too much style into his
singing. J. Dugan gave we'll appre-
ciated exhibition of music on the flute,
and Elmer Gethen's mouth organ play
ing, with organ accompaniment, was
we'll received. Nearly all the pieces
were well chosen and rendered. The
Reading Melted over sly.

That is to say, your lungs. Also all

full machinery it is. Not only the larger
air passages, but the thousands of little
tubes and cavities leading from them.
When these are clogged and choked
with matter which ought not to lie there,
your lungs cannot do halt their work.

Call it cold, cough, Group, pneumonia,
catarrh, consumption, or any of the fam

A man may now, if he is careful and
wise in his choice of a company, insure
his life, or, if insured, he may have the
temerity to die, without a fairly grounded
expectation of leaving his family a law
suit for a legacy. He may also be rea.
sonably sure that he is not placing his
own reputation (after he il unable to de.
fend i) at the mercy of a powerful cor
poration intent upon saving its funds from
the inroads OF a just debt. And 1 ques-
ton If it is too much to say that, given
enough money, a strong motive and o
powerful corporation on the one hand,
and only a sorrowing family on the other,
no man ever lived or died whose reputa-
ton could not be blackened beyond re-
pair, after he was himself unable to ex-
plain or refute seeming Irregularities of
conduct or dishonesty of motive. No
mans character is invulnerable, and no
mans reputation can afford the strain or
test of such a contest. Millions of dollars
have been withheld from rightful heirs
by threats of an exposure-the more
vague the more frightful-of the unsus-
pected crimes or misdeeds of the beloved
dead.
Thousands of cases never known to the
public have been COMPROMISED and
hundreds of heart aches Inc unjust sus-
picions II fears about the dead, which
can never be corrected, are aroused in
sorrowing but loving breasts by this
method of doing business" 1t is, of
course, of the utmost Importance that
every precaution be taken by life insur-
ance companies to protect the funds held
by them in trust for others against fraud
and trickery. But with the agent, the ex-
aiming physician, the medical directors
and the inspectors, all employed by and
answerable to the company represented,
if fraud is committed in getting into the
company, one or all of these paid officers
must almost of necessity be party to that
fraud. With all these safeguards in the
hands of the company, if a man is &C
cepted as a good risk" if he pays his
premiums, surely his family has the right
to expect a legacy and not q lawsuit nor
a compromise which must cast re-
proach on the dead.-Popular Science

''The carpet is destined to go" was
the recent comment of an upholsterer,
''and sanitary science will accomplish it.
1t has long been acknowledged that car,
pets harbor dust, musty odors, and the
poisons of such diseases as smallpox,
dIphtheria and scarlet fever. Oiled floors
urc the proper thing, and are readily
cleaned, as the oil becomes incorporated
with the wood and makes a hard finish,
becoming oxidized by contact with the
air. Wherever coverings of any kind
are necessary, for lessening sound, etc.
rugs and mats can be used, and they
have a pleasing, home like look. The
dust and insect nuisance gives place tc
cleanliness, and sunlight is not excluded
for fear Of fading the carpets. "-Phila,

The latest craze among the ladies is a
chair album"-gentlemen's hair. Young
mel are besought for a lock of hair, and
the request is such a tlattering one that
they are only too ready to comply when
the right damsels apply. The contribu-
ton is tied with a blue ribbon and goes
into the ''hair album along with the
hair off a crowd Of other fellows. Over
it will be written the name, age, color of
eyes, date of receiving the memento and
general remarks as to personal appear
ance, etc, which may or may not be
complimentary, as the album is never to
be seen by any other than feminine eyes.

trophies as an Indian warrior is of the

attacked with a very painful breaking out

who treated him for about four weeks.
The child received little or no good from
the treatment, as the breaking out, sup.
posed by the physician to be hives in an
aggravated form, became larger in
blotches, and more and more distressing.
